“A sharp piece of metal from the wreckage of your downed plane... This will have to do for now.”
— In-game description
The Wreckage Machete is an improvised sharp Maiming weapon featured in Dead Island 2.
Overview[]
The very first weapon the Slayers get their hands on, the Wreckage Machete is, quite literally, a part of the aircraft that's been scooped up and used as a weapon. It has decent damage for an improvised weapon, if rather low compared to anything else, along with characteristic low force of a sharp weapon. The swing speed is relatively good, with a low stamina usage for heavy attacks, though it has extremely poor durability. To be specific, the Wreckage Machete will break after killing any zombie. It does not lose durability on a hit which leave a zombie alive. In practice, this means that the Wreckage Machete will break on the first Walker encountered, unless you kick it to dead. This requires you to switch to a back-up of a Burnt Timber, if one of the Walkers drop one, or even your fists.
Scrap[]
When scrapped, the Wreckage Machete will be destroyed and give back 1 piece of Scrap and 1 piece of either Scrap, Adhesive, Fabric or Fasteners
Notes[]
- Like all improvised weapons, the Wreckage Machete can't be repaired at a workbench, only scrapped at one or in the inventory.
- Mods and Perks cannot be applied to the Wreckage Machete.
- It is the first weapon the slayers get a hold of at the crash site of 71 Heavy during the main quest Flight of the Damned.
Trivia[]
- This is the only weapon in the game that can break during a counter move, as a counter move does not reduce durability. This weapon however breaks after a successful kill, even during a counter move.
